Erisnor, Land of Barbarians

Urtan smiles and bows just slightly to her, "I wish to hit him over the head with something much harder than a pan. And thank you for the offer." he says and then looks around, seeming a bit hesitant before pulling up his hood and mask. "Would you mind if... I came in and got a drink quickly?"

Aneko shrugged lightly. "Sure just don't use the window. You can be as creepy as you want just be polite and use the door." She then closed the window and went to make tea.

Urtan smiles, wishing he could chuckle, perhaps show some other sign that he was glad. But he couldn't. Instead he walks up to the front door and opens it quietly, not even consciously sneaking. He slips his glove off and takes a cup, wincing at the pain as he quickly fills it with water. As soon as water hits the glass electricity bubbles through the water, visible and continuous.

"You really are kind of creepy." Aneko commented lightly. "But I don't mind. I am not exactly normal either. So what exactly are you?" She asked as she flitted through the kitchen. She fixed things up lightly. It was really bothersome when everything was out of place.

Urtan drinks the water and slips his glove back on before turning to her, leaning back against the counter. His clothing made him look somewhat mysterious and strange. In fact he wore complete white and every part of his was covered except his eyes. "As I said, I'm a dead man. In fact if anyone finds I was here they'll likely try and torture you for information."

"Like I can be captures so easily. Besides I never give up anything. They would have to kill me." Aneko sighed and looked away. "Besides no one will touch me. I doubt they will lay a hand on me. Not in my whole life has anyone ever laid a hand on me. Gentle or otherwise." She sighed and continued to clean up.

Urtan raises an eyebrow at this and gently queries, or as gently as he can with his broken voice. "And... why is that? If I may ask."

Aneko sighed and paused in her cleaning once more. "Because I am cursed. I am a child of darkness. My parents were never there because I was taken from them. It was decided that I would only bring them pain. So I grew up alone and since then no one has ever touched me. Especially not in a loving way. Only Chihiro will touch me and she think I am her big sister or soemthing."

Urtan holds out his hand to her, removing his glove slowly, as if afraid he might startle her. A spark jumps on his skin but then quiets. "Would you mind if I...?" he asks quietly.

"Mind if you what?" Aneko asked. She had never been asked anything of so she had no idea what he wanted. She looked at his hand with a curious look. So didn't understand what he could want. What would anyone want from her?

Urtan smiles an pulls off his mask and cap with his other hand, letting loose disheveled, shaggy brown hair. "May I touch you, Aneko?" he asks, "I promise you the electricity won't hurt."

Aneko looked thoughtful for a moment. "If you really want to. I don't see why you would. No one else will. But if it will make you happy then I don't mind." She said softly.

Urtan reaches out and gently takes her hand with his. She should feel a slight, almost pleasurable tingle from the electricity on his skin even as he winces. He lets go and then touches her shoulder, and again the tingle happens. Then he gently touches her cheek with just his fingertips, where this time the tingle is a little bit stronger, but not painful in any way. He looks at her and then suddenly pulls away, slipping his glove on and looking down. "I'm sorry. I forget my place. I should have only touched your hand." he says, for some reason acting as if he were a slave.

"No it's fine. No one has ever touched me that much. It was nice." Aneko said with a llight shrug. She then went back to cleaning up. "You don't have to mind yourself with me. I won't judge you and I doubt I will yell at you. I'm not like other people. I don't shun or ridicule other. I know how it feels."

Urtan nods and looks at her again, "I'm... sorry. I used to be a slave and... it's ingrained." he murmurs, coughing. "Thank you again for your hospitality. I may... come visit more often. If that is ok with you."

"No need to apologise for something you can't help." Aneko said with a light shrug. She sighed lightly as she placed glasses in the sink. "Feel free. Hopefuly I'll be hope if you come to visit. I tend to be out causing mayhem some where. It's not hard."

Urtan smiles, "It's not hard for me either." he says and pulls up his hood and mask. "It was... nice meeting with you. Now I'm certain my idiot companion is wondering about where I went."

"He'll get over it. And if he doesn't I am more than willing to wack him with something." Aneko said with a light shrug. She continued to adjust things. "It was nice to meet you as well. Have a nice day. And don't get into a lot of trouble." She said giving him a small smile.

Urtan tries to chuckle but it comes out more as a growl and he touches his throat looking sad. He half bows, half nods to her and then gently touches her cheek again, with his hand gloved this time, and smiles before disappearing out the door.

"What an interesting man." Aneko murmured. She sighed lightly and made her way into her bedroom. She took hold of her armor and let it roll up into simples bands. She could never really take them off. Dark swerling marks covered her limbs were the fabric and metal covered. She sighed lightly and flopped onto the bed.

Urtan appears back next to Erik who growls at him and shifts into human form. "What took you so long you crazy idiot." he snaps and stands, clothing himself. Urtan glares at him but remains silent. He really didn't like talking to anyone. Except perhaps Aneko.

Aneko sighed lightly and pulled the blankets up around her. She fell asleep quickly. While she slept her marks started to glow and a barrier former around her house and a fair distance away. She wasn't aware of it but it was good for protection.

Urtan feels the barrier lift and growls softly, feeling it leach his powers and even his life force from him. Erik frowns at him, "What's got you so cranky and uptight?" he asks and Urtan frowns. Apparently the barrier was only affecting him, even though he knew it wasn't actually around him.

Aneko let out a small sound. She rolled onto her back and placed a hand on her forehead. Her marks continued to glow and little static bolts jump from her marks and seemed to suround her. Her magic seemed to get a strange charge.

Urtan stumbles farther away from the barrier and the farther he gets the slower his powers and life force is sapped from him until finally it stops. He stands and stares, able to actually 'see' the barrier because all things have an electrical charge of some sort. And this barrier has a charge that usually repels creatures but due to his own charge being the opposite of the barrier it was trying to pull him and his powers in.

Suddenly Urtan growls and charges into the barrier, trying to work his way back to the cabin to see what was happening. For some reason he felt this was because of Aneko. When Erik tries to follow him, not only does he just hit the barricade but Urtan throws a weak lightning bolt at him, tossing him back and knocking him out.

Aneko let out a small sound. Her head tilted back and her body bowed slightly. The marks continued to glow and the strange charge surounding her seemed to grow. Sweat started to break out on her forehead. Her face almost looked like she was in pain.
